I'm not talking about case sensitivity here but unicode normalization which is controlled in the IO system. For example if you're creating a file öäü.txt (\x94\x84\x81) OS X will store it as o\u0308a\u0308u \u0308.txt on the filesystem. No matter if the filesystem is HSF, NFS, a mounted samba share or anything else. On Linux the filesystem might have an encoding but is generally non unicode-aware and no normalization takes place at all. This could lead to weird effects where you have \x94\x84\x81.txt in the database but o\u0308a\u0308u \u0308.txt on the filesystem which obviously makes it impossible to move the data from an OS X system to a linux one or access an NFS share from two systems at the same time.
